PERATION
The Presentation Recorders have four major modes of operation:
Streaming Send – In this mode of operation one of the Presentation Recorders is designated
as the “Sender” and all of the other units are designated as “Receivers”. The media streams
originate from the Sender and are decoded by one or more Receivers or desktop client media
players. The transmission is strictly one-way, and no feedback or interactivity is provided for.
The one-to-many operation is enabled via use of multicast connected networks. The unit is
able to stream and record simultaneously.
Streaming Receive – In this mode of operation the Presentation Recorder is configured to
receive a stream from another unit acting as a sender. See diagram above.
